4.10.8 Communication Test
Communication can be tested. The procedure starts by having the Class A unit transmits Message 10 to an
addressed Class A MMSI. The target MMSI, once received Message 10, will return Message 11. The test is
complete when the Class A unit successfully receives the Message 11.
Figure 101 Communication Test
Under the communication test page, pressing the MENU button enables the transmission of Message 10. Only
Class A units with GPS fix are listed and eligible for communication testing. If no valid Class A targets found in
range, the screen would show as below.
